Mission: Can I Get Kelly Ripa's Body?

How Ripa gets ripped What is this workout and how does it get Ripa into crazy shape? This is what I want to know before committing. I do some research and make some calls (remember, on most days I'm not just a couch potato, but also a journalist).

One measly Google search and I find out that Physique 57 is worshiped not only by Ripa, but models like Christy Turlington … great, I'm going to fit right in. I then watch a video of Martha Stewart giving it a go and relax a bit. If Martha can do it, surely I will be OK.

I gather the basics: Physique opened its doors to hip Manhattanites in 2006, and is based on the popular "Lotte Berk Method," a combination of strength-training, dance, and orthopedic stretches created in the 1950s by a former well-known ballet dancer. It was co-founded by Jennifer Vaughan Maanavi, a dance enthusiast, Columbia MBA, and former Wall Street professional (pssh, not intimidating), and Tanya Becker, one of the foremost instructors of "The Lotte Berk Method" for more than a decade. It now has droves of fans and devoted followers all claiming unique, rapid results from the low-impact workout and thanks to so many clamoring for it, Physique opened new studios in New York and Los Angeles and came out with a series of fitness DVDs.

But more importantly, I wanted to know if this workout would work for me:
Fun dancing and ballet integration that's likely to keep me interested: Check.
Low impact, which is easier on my joints: Check.
Unique, rapid results: Double check.

Great job! Getting started is the hardest part and as long as you continue, it'll be easy to keep those good habits. Now I am inclined to look into the Physique 57 classes. There is not gym where I live that offers it, but perhaps I can find a DVD where I can try it at home. Nice work!

Researchers at the University of Utah found that adults who consume eight or more glasses of water each day burned significantly more calories than people who only drank four or less.
WHY ISN'T THIS SHOUTED FROM THE ROOFTOPS???
